All Trans Autos Ltd, Bosch Car Service

5.0/5

All Trans Autos was started in August 1980 by Jill and Richard. We employed our first member of staff, Tony, in 1984 and we are proud that he is still in our employment. Over the past 34 years All Trans Autos has grown and today has 15 employees, ranging from fully qualified technicians to part time office staff. Each one is a valued member of the team and provides the excellent customer service for which the company is renowned. All Trans Autos prides itself on its fantastic training program. Even after 25 years Tony is still attending training to keep up to speed with the fast moving technology in today’s cars. We have trained four apprentices over the period and currently have our fifth apprentice who is in his first year of training. The husband and wife team of Jill and Richard provides an excellent atmosphere. They work along side their staff, giving the garage that family feel. Their children all help within the company, inputting their skills where required, although only one of them works full time, as the company’s fleet manager. In 2006 All Trans Autos moved to its present location – the same year in which we became a Bosch Car Service centre. In order to become a BCS certain criteria have to be met. To read more about this see our Bosch page. Today All Trans Autos is one of the largest independent garages in Colchester. We offer unlimited expertise and are able to deal with most makes to dealer level. We operate to standards beyond those that are expected even by Bosch, and we won their quality award in our first year. We were shortlisted down to the last three in the Independent Garage of the Year Award in 2008.

Frequently asked questions about a car radiator repair

Yes, small leaks can often be fixed, but big leaks usually need a new radiator.

Most of the time, yes. But if the damage is severe, a replacement might be necessary.

A radiator cools the engine by moving heat from the coolant to the air.

A faulty radiator can cause engine overheating, potentially leading to engine damage.

Not a good idea. It can cause your engine to overheat and lead to major damage.

With good care, a radiator can last 8-10 years or more.

Look for puddles under the car, low coolant levels, and a sweet smell from the engine.

It depends on the warranty terms. Check your vehicle’s warranty details.

It’s risky. Driving with a coolant leak can cause overheating and engine damage, so it’s best to get it fixed quickly.
